most Vulcans Sylok's facial expression never really changes in
general it's seems to always be a solid expression completely
lacking of emotions. "May I be of assistance lieutenant?" He
said to the female Ferengi.

Droba waited politely while the Captain finished his speech.
Again, speeches were nice but actions and transactions were
better. One he had finished, she gave the Vulcan science officer
a once over.
"Your late to the party Ell-Tee."
She said, pronouncing the letters "Lt." rather informally in her
squeaky little voice, more than a little bemused at his stiff
composure. She loved Vulcans. Sure they were a touch quicker
than most so you couldn't fleece them quite as well but they
were loads of fun to poke fun at- they had the best reactions.
"That's not logical." "You cannot conjugate verbs like that."
"That five isn't high."
God they were fun. Masters of humor and they didn't even know
it. Real rubes when it came right down to it.
"Take a load off. You look stiff enough to line the outer hull.
Grab a drink. Grab some food. Listen to some speeches... we are
done with those right?"
She invited, adding a playful wink towards the Captain. She
respected his authority but she was a Ferengi malcontent in a
Starfleet uniform at a party thousands of light years from home.
There was no way she was going to fit nicely and neatly into the
little box of protocol and formality they expected of her. She,
of course, meant no harm by it.

returned to the normal day to day of being on a Starship. She
hoped that she would also get chance to catch up with him at
some point during the Celebration. Seeing everyone mingling and
talking was a welcome sight and turned towards her husband. "Why
don't we park the cart where everyone can access it, get
something to eat and enjoy ourselves".

Jacob looked at his wife with a smile and nodded. He then said
to her "Yeah. Lets." He walked away from the cart so the crew
can enjoy themselves and that he can enjoy being with his new
wife.

Brooke smiled back at him before taking a plate and loaded it
with various things for them both, then she too walked away and
caught up to her husband. " Should we grab a table or sit back
at the bar ?" She asked knowing that Max and Lucy had everything
in hand for the time being and would call if they needed her.

Josh turned to his brother KnodwI. "I'll be right back." He then
walked up towards Captain Dyson. He waited for the captain to
stop speaking to other people do that he didn't interrupt them.
He saw his opening and began to speak. "Excuse me Captain, I'm
sorry to intrude but i was just wondering. Will this be a recon
mission or a snatch and grab black ops style? "
Josh waited for his captain to respond, and as he waited he
nodded to other members of the crew walking past him as a sign
of hello.

Howell nodded in acknowledgment as the Captain gave details of
the new mission. At that point, Dan moved over to Commander
Sharpe and holding his had out replied "Commander Sharpe I'm
Lieutenant Commander Howell."Howell was trying to readjust to
life in Starfleet after having three months off, but he knew he
would soon get back into the role of things.

Maria smiled widely at Howell and said, taking his hand "Nice to
meet you, Mr. Howell."
Maria preferred going by Mr, Miss, or Mrs, rather than ranks.
However, she would much prefer a first name basis, but in this
situation, it was formal, so first names weren't much of an
option.
Releasing his hand, she looked between B'Ozian and Mr. Howell,
before saying, "I'm going to get a drink, would either of you
like anything?" She then stood flashing her eyes between them
waiting for one of them to respond.

Nodding to Droba, Sylok took her advice and walked over to the
food, he picked out a few items without meat and returned to the
table taking a seat next to Droba. Sylok first posting after the
academy was at Starbase-twelve which was mainly a solitary one
working on research projects, after that he served aboard an all
Vulcan ship the USS T'Kumbra where the most social activity he
participated in was a baseball game on Starbase Deep Space Nine.
So he was not fully adjusted to the unessassary loud chatter
currently taking place in the ships lounge.

Howell released Maria's hand before replying "No thank you. I've
somehow managed to supercharge myself on Coffee." Finished Dan

--- Quote from: Jaden Montgomery link ---
>
> Nine Lives
>
> The bar had become increasingly crowded, as the crew had began
to get much more social. Jaden had begun to feel a bit
uncomfortable, as a social setting such as this was not in his
comfort zone. He much preferred the bridge of a starship to a
crowded bar. He found that being in the line of duty was the
true measure of who a person was. Drinking and reminiscing only
provided the opportunity for people to run their mouths.
>
> Looking down at his bourbon, Jaden realized that he was
getting down to the last little bit of liquid in his glass. He
brought the glass up to his lips and threw the remainder of his
drink back. The bourbon burned a bit as it went down his throat,
but it was not too bad. Jaden then looked around the room and
noticed that the captain and the executive officer were standing
at the other end of the bar.
>
> Putting the glass down on to the bar top, Jaden mumbled to
himself, "Well, no time like the present."
>
> He then stood up from his seat and smoothed out the wrinkles
that had appeared on the front of his uniform. Making one last
quick look around the room, we began to walk down to were his
new command team were standing and approved them with a
noticeable amount of confidence, yet subtly enough to not
completely interrupt their conversation.
>
> As the situation was a little less formal than reporting on
the bridge or the captain's ready room, Jaden did not feel the
need to make a formal report. He stood a little more straighter
than he normally would and said, "Excuse me, Captain? Lieutenant
Montgomery, sir. I believe I'm going to be your new Chief Flight
Control Officer."

B'Ozian looked to the Lieutenant and bowed his head slightly
"Yes Mr Montgomery you have come highly recommended and I am
glad to have you onboard " He then gestured towards the food
"Please eat and relax tonight, Tomorrow we will be getting
underway" He was about tp move on when the ferengi officer
caught his eye.

The wink of her eye did not phase the Caitian at all he knew of
Droba's reputation as a good ops officer but she was on his crew
for her other speciality, Her negotiaion skills were the reason
she was wanted on his crew and he looked forward to unleashing
her on the unsuspecting.

"You must be Patrick Brown" B'Ozian held out his hand and took
hold of the PADD he was about to add more when Shepard walked up
to them.
"Lieutenant I am sure you understand I cannot discuss that here,
you may want to have a talk with your Chief here" B'Ozian nodded
his head and then turned back to Brown "And Mr Brown, I'd
appreciate if you could arrange some drills for the journey to
Cardassia IV and we will have a briefing in the morning " with
that he turned once more to his XO.

"The usual please Commander" B'Ozian was starting to get anxious
as he seemed to be the one everyone wanted to talk to which he
hoped wpould stop and the crew would start to bond.
